I think this song has two different meanings: It's quite obvious that it's about the Greek myth of Orpheus (who went to the underground to get his dead girlfriend back).
But you can also see it as the story of Marc Bolan. He's the dandy in the underworld and this was his comeback song after a rough period.
(E.g, "Exalted companion of cocaine nights" is about his cocaine addiction).
Yeah I'm surprised too..
